Album Description 2009 album from the Canadian rockers. Three Days Grace has built a dedicated and ever-growing fanbase over the course of two Platinum albums and years of touring in North America. Since their formation, they have had multiple smash hit singles on Rock radio and videos that have received extensive play on Fuse, MTV2, and VH1. The band returned to the studio this year with producer Howard Benson (Daughtry, Seether, and Theory of a Deadman) to craft what will surely be their most accomplished album to date. This eagerly anticipated release is certain to please longtime followers while getting Three Days Grace even more attention from Rock music fans everywhere. Jive.

THREE DAYS GRACE NEVER FAIL TO SURPRISE! September 22, 2009 R. James (Bahrain) 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
It's been 6 years since the release of their Platinum selling Self Titled debut, and these guys are still going strong. Around the time of their second release "One X", everyone wondered if these guys could actually top their first album.. and we all know the result of that.. yet another Platinum selling album, followed by a live dvd, which was also great. Come 2009, we have their third release "Life Starts Now" an album I thought, would be almost impossible, after an album like "One X"! Surprisingly, I'd say, this album isn't up par with "One X", But different altogether. More solos can be heard this time around.. different, but good! The first single "Break" starts off with "Billy Jean" like beats, but then it literally breaks into signature 3DG riffing.. amazing bass work in this song. I saw the video the other day, its way too polished with all the good boy hair do's, & a funny concept.. all paint flying around.. but i couldn't stop laughing when I saw Barry Stock in a Pink suit.. anyways, back to the album review.. this is a more mellow album, if compared to the last two albums.. but in no way short of quality ~ "World So Cold" is like a testament to 3DG's past efforts, its pure 3DG style rock from start to finish! "The Good Life" is like this albums "Riot". Album highlights would be the tracks "No More" (its got one of those choruses that just stick in your head) & "Last To Know" (good piano work building up to a strong climax) The rest of the album is just as good, like I said, not on the same pace as the last 2 albums, comparatively more mellow.. but on its own its a great 3rd effort! Right now the song "Without You" seems to be stuck in my head, I just love the way it starts and the solo towards the end. All in all a great album from a great band who never fail to surprise! Nowadays it so easy to get complete discographies from those torrent sites.. even new albums way before their release date!! Nothing can be done about it though.. piracy IMO cant be stopped! But what we could do, as true fans, is buy the mp3's or even the cd's, to credit bands like 3DG for what they are worth. I said it in another review, & I'll say it again, It's bands like 3DG that are actually worth paying the amount for! Cheers to 3DG for making yet another KicK@$$ album. Buy it, you will not be disappointed ;o)
Amazing September 27, 2009 A. Tackett (Dublin, OH) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Its been 3 years since the last album, and this new one has not left me disappointed. I can honestly say that there is not one song that I dislike. Sure, there are some that I like more than others (that's natural), but unlike other albums by other artists, where I skip through the songs I don't care for, I have listened to this one straight through at least twice a day since it came out last week. I believe any Three Days Grace fan will feel the same, feeling that the long wait since One X was well worth it.
3DG knows how to make good music. September 22, 2009 K. Einertson (MN, USA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
There's nothing wrong with change. This slightly new, slower version compliments Adam's voice much better. The better use of their instruments i.e. Piano, better Bass, etc... really open this album up. If your expecting corny songs like Riot - you will be disappointed. Although songs like Home and Just Like You would have been nice I suppose. Either way, the wait was worth it. I strongly recommend it.
A new direction for 3DG September 22, 2009 Nate 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
Yet another excellent album from one of the best hard rock bands out there! "Life Starts Now", produced by the great Howard Benson, shows how much the band has matured over the years since their first album, not only in lyrics, but also in their instrumentals and song writing. The drums/guitar/bass are all a lot more intricate and complex this time around with numerous guitar solos throughout the album, including lots of different effects and tones, which is a nice change for 3DG. Adam's vocals sound as great as ever, especially on the moving track "Last To Know", which also features piano, a first for the band.
This album may take a little longer to grow on some fans, as it is softer and has some more ballad-type songs but overall it is great to see them mature and evolve as a band, without losing their sound.
Definitely worth picking up! 3DG is one of the few bands out there who consistently release solid albums, front to back!
Some of the standout tracks are: Last To Know, World So Cold, Break, Someone Who Cares, Bitter Taste
Good, maybe not Great though... October 1, 2009 Jerry Dude (Hampton VA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Been a fan since TDG first came out and love all of their stuff. I was hoping for a little more anger in the feel and lyrics of this CD than it has... but nonetheless I still support them, it's not a bad CD... just not what we all normally expect from TDG. I can honestly say that I don't skip a track when listening to this CD.. I do indeed like all the tracks... I just don't get the same urge to headbang when listening to this CD as I still do when "I Hate Everything About You" or "Home" etc.. comes on the radio... So yeah... five stars for good stuff... just not great.
